Ford Ka ???

Night-owl_6 · 2008-06-11 21:11:02

Hi I am looking at buying a Ford Ka as a second car, can anyone tell me what sort of price Im looking at?! I have seen two for sale locally, one for £500 R reg with 70.000 miles or another for £900 which is a P reg with 69.000. Is this a good price? Could I get a decent one or maybe a 306 from Ebay cheaper???

There are numerous problems with cheap KA's though - they are extremely prone to rust, the steering racks (man and power) are frequent failures, suspension items such as lower arms also take a fair bashing and the spark plugs have a habit of seizing inside the head of the engine.

Unless you know what your looking for i would suggest taking along someone who does know what their doing.
